Things we learned in the Sunday Post

The things we’ve discovered in the last seven days – thanks to sundaypost.com.

1. Lorraine Kelly knows how to stirr things up!

Our columnist Lorraine is a big favourite with our readers – and rightly so!

But when she launchedthis attack on the jobless Kirkcaldy mother and daughter Janice and Amber Manzur, she divided the nation…for a bit.

Some rushed to the Fifers’ defence, stating that all focus should be on wealthy abusers of power, while others backed Lorraine up.

We’d love to hear what you thinkon our Facebook page, orin the comments section of her story.

2. It’s true – we are being ripped off!

We’ve long suspected there’s something going on. Oil and gas prices are falling, but we’re still paying through the nose when it comes to paying bills.

Well, believe it or not, we’re getting a raw deal. From energy suppliers and at the petrol pumps.

Warning: this story may raise your blood pressure.

The great fuel price rip-off

3. Glasgow shoppers won’t hand over their credit cards to beggars.

Find out what happened when our man went undercover as a chip and pin beggar on the streets of Glasgow.

Spoiler – he didn’t make a lot of money!

Beggars in upmarket parts of London might get away with getting shoppers to part with their cash via bank cards – but not in Glasgow!

“Spare some change I accept all major credit cards”

4. If you want to find Bigfoot (we don’t recommend it), Arbroath is a good place to start.

Bigfoot in Arbroath?

A British Bigfoot Research team member is hunting for the famous beast in Scotland.

Step aside Nessy – Bigfoot is the new monster in town!

This story really caught the imagination with plenty of comments on our facebook page, but we’re not sure everyone was taking the story 100% seriously!

5.Everybody wants to hear about Natasha Raskin’s ‘dirty secret’.

Never before has a story about an antiques road trip got us all so excited – and the rest of the internet.

This story was huge on our website – especially when Natasha Raskin was hosting the Antiques Road Show.

During those sacred hours when she was on our screens, the stats on the site went through the roof. And we were delighted. There was champagne everywhere.

OK, that’s not strictly true. Most of that time was spent scratching our heads in disbelief.

It took most the week for us to work out why the story was trumping everything else, but we suspect it may have had something to do with the headline.

It seems that everyone wanted to know about Natasha’s ‘dirty secret’.

How many who visited the story go to read about the sort of secret they were looking for, we will never know…

When TV came calling, Natasha Raskin had a ‘dirty secret’ to confess.

6. Commonwealth Games bobbies could be in for a lean start to 2015.

January is a pretty tough time for all of us. The break between December’s and January’s pay day can feel endless, with Christmas and New Year burning a deep hole in our pockets.

But for police officers brought in to help in the Commonwealth Games, that financial pressure could go on for much longer – thanks to payroll miscalculations. Ouch.

“Thanks for your help during Glasgow Games now give us back your overtime pay”

7. Bowlers are cashing in on their own bowling greens.

Bowling clubs are closing at a rate of one a month leaving the future of the popular pastime in peril.

And it’s their members’ fault.

They’ve been selling their own greens for cash.
